So awesome how Stephen “WONDERBOY” Thompson always uses this for his walkouts! It’s probably one of the best fits for a walkout song any fighter has ever had!
I hope he enters on a zip-line just as the lyrics say "how about the power of flight" and S.T flys in from the seating while Jack is actually doing the walk-in, that would be so epic and funny.
For such a playful, almost silly song...the power of the music moves me to near tears. AWESOMENESS. These guys are so powerful they can just be kidding around and almost accidentally create something timeless.
This is as close as the D ever got to a straight up serious song. There's still humorous undertones throughout, but it really just stands as a great rock song.
My fiancé died in a drunk driving “accident” last yr, some 19 yr old kid on this 3rd DUI ran him down doing over 100.. this song was “our” song. Nick would get me in the car and blast this, he’d sing and mime the moves with me, God he loved this band so much.. hearing this brought me to tears, I miss him so much, so I’m glad to hear it again and remember the good times. Thank you Jack Black and band for the wonderful memories ❤ I’ll always come back to listen again and again.
I’m sorry. Glad you have this memory. The pain doesn’t go away but you find ways to process as time moves on, screw anyone who says you just get over it.
@@doctorsuave thank you Daniel. It’s a process for sure. My daughter is having a rough time, I’ve gotten her a councilor to hopefully help her through it. Found out last week the punk fired his lawyer and wants to plead not guilty.. 😡

Like Weird Al, people often overlook the musical talent “comedy” bands have. Jack Black has an amazing singing voice and Kyle is an amazing guitar player.
In 2001 I went to a concert to see Jimmy Eat World, followed by Tenacious D, with Weezer as the headliner. Totally packed arena, probably 10 thousand tickets sold. I was (and still am) a huge Weezer fan, but _damn_ if Jack Black didn't steal that show with his amazing stage presence. It was the most fun I've ever had at a concert to this day and Tenacious D was absolutely amazing to see live.
I was in the Army stationed in South Korea in 2014. My Korean ex-gf knew I loved Tenacious D and got us tickets to see their show in Seoul that December. It was one of the best concerts I've ever been to.
Bro would have killed to be at that show. Cannot even imagine. It’s funny, I’m 36 and the D only continues to grow on me. Not to mention pick of destiny was so funny!
What powers, you ask? I dunno... how 'bout *the power of flight?* That do anything for ya? *That's **_levitation_**, holmes.* How 'bout the power to kill a yak from two hundred yards away... *with **_mind bullets!_* That's *telekinesis*, Kyle. How 'bout the power... _...to move you?_
First time listening to this song... man... there are so many great songs out there and it is always a wonderful experience when we find one... I know these guys have been on the road for quite a while, but being from a non-English speaking country, I never made the effort to get to know more of their work... Brilliant!!
I really, really, REALLY want Tenacious D to do a Rock Opera album telling the story of Wonderboy or in a similar style. Holy shit Jack, I'd buy at least 4 copies to support that shit.
I want a space fantasy rock opera where Jack Black plays a Captain Kirk type role (original star trek). Aliens have invaded and enslaved humans on a remote colony. He is a brilliant washed up captain and the only one who can lead a band of unlikely heroes. It should be a throwback to Barbarella style films and directed by Quentin Tarantino.
This song meant a lot to me as a 6th grader who was constantly being picked on at school only to come home to an abusive household. So many shit memories but I’m not calling it quits man. Not like they’re reading this but thank you Tenacious D.
You were picked on at school because you had failing parents. If you want to overcome their nature you have to forgive them for everything they did to you.
Screaming Wonderboyyyyyyyyyy down school hallways when this dropped all those years back was a slice of life I never even knew I missed until I heard this again just now. Great track. Tenacious D truly are in their own category.
I'm a Brit, nearly 60 & have been a fan for years, love this song, I saw them live at the Download festival in 2012 with one of my Sons, they were superb, the highlight of the weekend for me. Both of my Sons saw them live in London when they were on tour here a few years ago which was brilliant also!
I used to imagine Tenacious D as a parody "band". Just for fun. Not anymore today. I love this music right next to Queen, Led Zeppelin, Ozzy and others. This song in particular, is so SO enlightening. Love, kisses, HELL, Tenacious D!
2:06 The slowmotion billowing of Wonderboy's cloak there is like the sickest shit, I've believed this since the first time I ever saw this music video on MTV2.
This song used and still hits me on a soft spot... Love the balance between emotional and uplifting beat and groove... Kinda tells me that there's no pond of shit that a can't get through

I absolutely LOVE this clever yet silly ( as always ) ballad from one of the most outstanding bands to date. Adore you two guys... keep rocking hard ( and silly ) and keep us forever smiling.....🌹🌹
He says “what is the secret OF your powers?”, not “what is the secret TO your powers?” In his wisdom, he does not seek divinity, but rather admires the grace that Wonderboy has, in which he harnesses greatness. ❤️
As someone who has read and watched Beowulf, re-read all of the Lord of the Rings and seen the films many times, and also through watched all 8 seasons of Game of Thrones, I officually fact check this comment as *true.* 👍
Watching ice cream melt on a bus stop bench is better than the last season, which ranks in quality alongside an aggressive prostate exam by a doctor with a prosthetic sword hand. That doctor? Young Nasty Man.
Kyle can seriously play the guitar bro. And jack has an awesome voice. I wish they did a serious album just so the critics could actually listen to how awesome they really are
The quality if the song made it a staple of every MP3 player I've ever owned. This is the first I've seen the video and the quality of the cinematography honestly has me a little taken aback.
I get this is Tenacious D and it supposed to be funny and all, but I've been listening to this song on repeat since last night. The musicality, the harmonies, the progressions in this song are wonderfully made. It's not an awfully complicated song, but it's just so easy to play along.
In class today, I had to make a super hero/ villain. For the superpower I put down, "How 'bout the power to kill a yak from 200 yards away... with mind bullets! That's telekinesis, Kyle. How 'bout the power to move you?"
You read the comment wrong. What I mean is that you can tell their music comes naturally to them. It's not rude to say that someone has talent to the point of being able to write a better song in their sleep than most popular artists can do on aderol.
just want to clarify that I was only implying they "can" sarcastically throw a song together that would be better produced/recorded than anything on the radio (is radio still a thing?) today. Not that they actually DO make their music sarcastically. Finally, "I'm not your pal, friend." haha just had to get that last one in there
My brother introduced me to this song when I was in highschool. I would laugh and then growing up I started to appreciate it. Well my brother ended up passing away in March in 20 it hurts listening to this song but it reminds me of him so much
They are seriously talented! This song reminds me sooooo much of songs from the 1980s. I truly believe if this came out back in let's say 1986 it would have been massive! This just good even though the lyrics are silly but damn good song!!
***** I think I see what you're saying. It's kind of a chicken egg thing though. D's flavor is very 1970s Rock'n'Roll mixed with Dungeons and Dragons. It's been around since...well... the 1970s and it came from other things besides. The Lord of the Rings movies, World of Warcraft, Game of Thrones, Guitar Hero, and the digital age have brought this subculture out of the shadows of America's basements and garages, but when I was a kid this kinda stuff was defintely not cool. So in a way you're right. D exhibited a flavor that wouldn't be considered "cool" until much later. But D didn't invent that flavor, nor were they the first to use it, but then that's true with most things.
For a comedy band, they seriously have some of the most memorable melodies in all of rock

The quality if the song made it a staple of every MP3 player I've ever owned. This is the first I've seen the video and the quality of the cinematography honestly has me a little taken aback.
Buck, man. I miss you come back to game consoles.
Right about now it's time for a BIGGITY BUCK HD REMAKE!
Also nobody knows how much I wish I could edit my original post to say "The quality OF the song"
Buck Bumble Oh yah well your controls were hard to use! one analog stick, but you still had a kick ass theme song!
BUCK TO THE BUCK TO THE BOOM TO THE BASS BUCK TO THE BOOM TO THE baaahhhhmble~
For me this is the greatest and best song in the world that Tribute was written about.
Secretly, this was always the best song in the world. And the legend continues
WONDERBOY.......WHAT IS THE SECRET OF YOUR POWER!!
Intellect wisdom. :p

I sing this to my son because he takes me far away from the mucky muck and he’s my little hero
The vocals sound Fantastic. The whole group sounds great! GREAT TRACK!

Yes it is.
User name checks out
Actually, it brings a tear to my eye sometimes.
Jack has the best white man rock vocals. Super underrated.
you would never expect someone like jables to hit such high notes like that. And KG did such an amazing guitar solo
what do you mean you wouldn't expect him to hit high notes? that's what he's best at
@@BreydanArchibald i mean an ordinary 60 year old man wouldnt usually hit high notes like that
honestly a absolute wonder for all of mankind
I get this is Tenacious D and it supposed to be funny and all, but I've been listening to this song on repeat since last night.
The musicality, the harmonies, the progressions in this song are wonderfully made. It's not an awfully complicated song, but it's just so easy to play along.
In class today, I had to make a super hero/ villain. For the superpower I put down, "How 'bout the power to kill a yak from 200 yards away...
with mind bullets! That's telekinesis, Kyle.
How 'bout the power to move you?"
Posting from 8 years in the future to confirm that Tenacious D still rocks my socks off.
A band that can sarcastically throw together albums upon albums of music that shits on any serious artist.
I'd have said, "many serious artists," but it is amazing. I can't get over how well he sings with "tongue in cheek."
You read the comment wrong.
What I mean is that you can tell their music comes naturally to them. It's not rude to say that someone has talent to the point of being able to write a better song in their sleep than most popular artists can do on aderol.
first off, being a guitar player for about 10 years. I'm pretty sure I know how music is made lol.
second, I'm not your "bud", guy.
just want to clarify that I was only implying they "can" sarcastically throw a song together that would be better produced/recorded than anything on the radio (is radio still a thing?) today.
Not that they actually DO make their music sarcastically.
Finally, "I'm not your pal, friend."
haha just had to get that last one in there
Haters gonna hate.
Still moved in 2016, that's a real super power.

I miss this version of you guys, the ones that backed each other through thick and thin.
#FDT
Let’s be honest. Always THICC.
Keep on rocking guys you both are amazing. Love from New Zealand.
I was glad to see them at ufc 296
so sad fight sucked
My brother introduced me to this song when I was in highschool. I would laugh and then growing up I started to appreciate it. Well my brother ended up passing away in March in 20 it hurts listening to this song but it reminds me of him so much
One of the best rock songs ever made, awesome piece of music.
How it is possible to make such a good music?! 😊
They are seriously talented! This song reminds me sooooo much of songs from the 1980s. I truly believe if this came out back in let's say 1986 it would have been massive! This just good even though the lyrics are silly but damn good song!!
Watched them perform live yesterday and was bummed when they didn't play this song! My only drawback of an otherwise amazing concert!
Tenacious D should do the soundtrack for Game of Thrones.
YAAS
***** Ahead of their times? I dunno about that. Medieval settings have been around since...well...medieval times.
***** I think I see what you're saying. It's kind of a chicken egg thing though. D's flavor is very 1970s Rock'n'Roll mixed with Dungeons and Dragons. It's been around since...well... the 1970s and it came from other things besides. The Lord of the Rings movies, World of Warcraft, Game of Thrones, Guitar Hero, and the digital age have brought this subculture out of the shadows of America's basements and garages, but when I was a kid this kinda stuff was defintely not cool. So in a way you're right. D exhibited a flavor that wouldn't be considered "cool" until much later. But D didn't invent that flavor, nor were they the first to use it, but then that's true with most things.
(-■_■)
I've been beating the shit out of rock and roll with older themes before it was cool.
+Brian Jackson Well said, fellow nerd.
their music has helped me through so much cra*** thank you mr Black and Cage!!!!!!
Legendary Stephen WONDERBOY Thompson !!!
Stephen 'Wonderboy' Thompson came out to this song for his last fight and I loved every second of it
